PTC Windchill is an industry leader in product lifecycle management in the mechanical manufacturing sector. More and more organizations are relying on it to manage the content and process across their product enterprises. The benefits of full coverage from "concept to service" are immense and undeniable: ranging from faster time-to-market and more variations in design, to higher quality and lower cost, to superior service and reusable designs.

With the announcement of ZWCAD Windchill Integration, the domain of PLM coverage is now expanded to high-performance, affordable 2D/3D CAD. Now, 100% of design and detailing -- within an organization or across a global enterprise and whether on product or manufacturing work -- can be performed while in a PLM-supported environment. This offers rich PLM productivity tools (product-wide searching, change management, etc.) to the entire design team and full coverage benefits to product builders.
